However, no one was aware that the Notes 8 client uses about 500 MB of RAM and these users only had about that on their PC's as they were nearing a refresh cycle. This entire Domino system was actually implemented by IBM at a great cost to the customer, and 2 years into this, they still haven't been able to get the 30,000 Exchange boxes all migrated due to issues, and haven't even begun to touch Public Folders, as they can't get the mail in DB's to work the way that the users are used to. -----Original Message----- From: Ben Scott [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, October 09, 2009 2:28 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Lotus Notes On Fri, Oct 9, 2009 at 1:19 PM, Wulff Jr, Ronald J. <[email protected]> wrote: > If you want some real world feedback, I can provide some on a major > institution that went from Exchange 2003 to Notes 8.0 and the overall > experience I'd like to hear that story. Many moons ago, I had to deal with some Notes client support for some satellite offices that were customers of mine. I never touched the server stuff. I found client to be, frankly, the worst UI of any major program I've ever used. But my experience is rather dated, so I'm curious what more recent stuff is like. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ * * * This E-mail, along with any attachments, is considered confidential and may well be legally privileged.
